Lace & Denim

” We wear short shorts !” does anyone remember that commercial? At the time, I hated it because the girls in the commercial had such long beautiful legs and mine were short and thick. Though I love my legs now, I don’t really wear shorts that much. They usually ride up my legs which make them even shorter so I am constantly pulling them down. However, with the temperature reaching record breaking numbers here in Houston, short shorts are in heavy rotation right now.

Another item I am trying to incorporate more are flats. I have worn heels pretty much my entire adult life. Of course, I wear sneakers when they are required, gym, outdoor activities or when I find a really snazzy pair. Other than that, I am usually in heels. I purchased the ones pictured several years ago because I wanted a pair of white flats after seeing them on someone in a fashion magazine. I was so excited when I found them but never wore them until today. It is very tricky so pull off a white shoe of any kind, which is probably the reason it took me so long to wear them.

I love lace and I really love white (my favorite color) so when you put them both together I am in white lace heaven. The collar and sleeves of this top are the main reasons I purchased it, oh I can not forget the price. Got it at a steal! I will definitely be wearing it again, possibly with a bottom that is a bit more dressy. I finished the look off by adding a snakeskin chain bag I scored from Vince Camuto as I embraced the summer heat while shopping for NYFW.
